And, I'm back.
Upcoming RIA action in 2 weeks, is pretty run-of-the-mill. The highest priced items are Henry, New Haven and Winchester lever actions.
Of course, in case you're wondering, for my retirement party you guys can get me a pair of High Standard Crusaders. Just such a pair are up for auction. Matching s/n's. Of course one is 44M and the other 45LC.
I picked out 5 lots I was interested in. Two of them contained Camp Carbines and the other 3 had S&W revolvers. I checked to see what the pre-bids were over at ProxiBid and decided they wanted too much money.
I did however find Jeff Dobson Auctions in NW GA had a S&W M66 (no-dash w/ stainless rear sight) up for auction and I put down $400. Silly me. There's 18% bidder fee plus the sales tax. But I also bid $160 on a 10/22. I've wanted a beater to rebuild, for a while. Maybe this will be it.
